Detroit, Michigan – General Motors don change retention policy for Corvette ZR1 buyers, now dem go hold di car for 12 months before e fit sell am. Dis new policy go affect those wey wan flip di rare ride for quick profit.
Di move, announced recently, dey aim to curb flippers wey sabi profit from high demand for di new ZR1 model. E be like di policy wey dem put on di C8 Corvette Z06 wey require buyers to hold di car for one year before e fit sell am or risk losing warranty.
Rick, a prominent Corvette seller, sabi say for di new retention letter, both di dealer and di buyer go sign to show say dem understand the new rule, including a clause wey say e go dey di responsibility of di seller to inform di next buyer say warranty no dey if dem sell di car within di retention period.
“Di retention policy no dey balance, as e dey mostly punish di new owners while dealers still dey take advantage with outrageous markups,” he talk. “We appreciate say GM dey try but di way to go na to limit some profits wey dealers dey make from people wey no fit sell dem car.”
